Because the developers do not use the forum to track tasks and bugs, they use Jira. You posting a problem here will not bring it to their attention unless someone else in the community goes to the trouble of opening a ticket for you. The devs as a whole are dealing with a lot of issues already, goin...

Do not attempt to make that sort of change unilaterally to those pages, those serve as effectively official records of the releases. I'm actually surprised Amine hadn't locked that one down yet, every previous release after it went out those wiki pages get protected.

An explicit decision was made late in the 0.3.x series that all future changelogs would be just a list of Jira issues resolved. This way the process is almost completely automated so that there is no dependency on any person finding time to go through all commits. It also served to act as an inducem...

Still not quite right. What Aleksey did was a fairly subtle piece of pointer arithmetic that I'm personally ambivalent about since it is not obvious at all what it does unless you actually think about it and know in detail things like operator precedence and whatnot. It is clever though, and can ser...

sdk/lib/rtl/heap.c:2020 FreeListsInUseUlong = *FreeListsInUse++ & ~((1 << ((ULONG)Index & 0x1f)) - 1); An "optimization" by Aleksey Bragin wherein he uses pointer and bit twiddling magic in order to mask out all entries in a list that are smaller than a requested size. Extremely clever, and utterly ...

That snippet as a single line of code might actually be breaking our coding guidelines. It's the equivalent of the following. if(Reason) *Reason = 0; It's two separate operations, an if check to see if Reason is non-zero (it's fairly common to omit the == 0 part of these checks in C/C++, especially ...
